Hi there, I just upgraded from a Kobo Clara 2e to a Kobo Libra Colour and I have an existing Calibre library that I manage when I was still using my Clara. So I set up my KLC and everything is working fine, the books are sent without issues and all the information is correct. I would like to sync the reading progress between my Calibre Library and my KLC so I went to Kobo Utilities and restored the reading percentages, last read date, and last reading location (these are all set up in my Calibre as custom columns). That went fine and I can see my books getting correctly tagged as finished and updating the book I'm currently reading to 33% which is also correct.

Now my issue started when I connected my KLC back to my Calibre to update my reading percentage (I usually do this every Saturday so that it saves the reading progress in my Calibre and also update my Goodreads reading progress through the Goodreads add-in); Calibre detected the reader but it says I don't have new progress so nothing to sync even though I'm 38% on the book. I also did a test where I read a new book in my Libra, made the percentage around 20% and connected to Calibre. Calibre wasn't able to pick up these change where my Clara 2e is able to sync new books that I have started reading. I tested this issue with my Clara 2e and set the book progress to 50%, when I connected to Calibre, it had no issue picking up the new percentage.

Is there currently an issue with the new Kobo models that doesn't let you sync the progress you made from the device to Calibre?
